Join NAVSTAR as I dive into another EDF RC jet with the H-King Flycat V2 from HobbyKing! This 70mm 12-blade 6S EDF jet is a beast designed for high-speed performance, precise aerobatics, and user-friendly handling, making it perfect for intermediate to advanced pilots who crave speed. Built from lightweight yet durable EPO foam, it features a wingspan of 1042mm, fuselage length of 1115mm, an upgraded brushless inrunner motor (2860-2100KV), Aerostar RVS G2 ESC, twin rudders for enhanced control, pre-installed electronic retracts, and a colorful high-visibility scheme that stands out in the sky.

One of the standout features is how easily it can be modified for FPV flying. While the included canopy does not lend itself to FPV we found one that does to mount an FPV camera and VTX without major structural changes .In this video, I share my maiden flight experience, including a heart-pounding crash caused purely by pilot error (spoiler: I accidentally threw the throttle cut). But thanks to the Flycat V2's rugged EPO construction, and a safe ditch in the tall grass it bounced back with minimal damage— a quick glue job and some 3D printed parts, and it was airworthy again for the next day.
This plane's flight envelope is impressive: stable at low speeds for easy takeoffs and landings, yet capable of screaming high-speed passes and tight maneuvers on full throttle, all powered by a Turnigy 6S LiPo battery for that extra punch of power and endurance.Whether you're into speed runs, aerobatics, or FPV mods, the Flycat V2 delivers excitement without the fragility.
